 The SQLite database engine does not support a number of schema operations that are supported by the majority of other relational databases. If you attempt to apply one of the unsupported operations to a SQLite database then a `NotSupportedException` will be thrown.

+Starting in EF Core 5.0, a table rebuild will be attempted in order to perform certain operations. Rebuilds are only possible for tables that are part of your EF Core model. If a table isn't part of the model--for example, if it was created manually inside a migration--than a `NotSupportedException` is still thrown.

 ## Migrations limitations workaround
 
 You can workaround some of these limitations by manually writing code in your migrations to perform a table rebuild. A table rebuild involves renaming the existing table, creating a new table, copying data to the new table, and dropping the old table. You will need to use the `Sql(string)` method to perform some of these steps.
 
 See [Making Other Kinds Of Table Schema Changes](https://sqlite.org/lang_altertable.html#otheralter) in the SQLite documentation for more details.

-In the future, EF may support some of these operations by using the table rebuild approach under the covers. You can [track this feature on our GitHub project](https://github.com/aspnet/EntityFrameworkCore/issues/329).
